It's a Lemon alright. That process sucks, but has been under way for a while. If something isn't worked out on the 4th I have a hearing for the Lemon Law on the 13th. After the Lemon Law my lawyer wants to go after lost time, etc... Hopefully everything will be resolved on the 4th.

I agree. And 1 person is given authority. The DCSM was given the authority here. The dealership could fix it becuase she said no, and the HQ wouldn't help or talk to me becuase she said no. I just dont' think she understands that it has been the same issue. What bothers me is the 2nd time I took it in it was Running! It just felt stiff and was grinding. Then I get it back and it breaks down!!!

A lot of times the stealership will file warranty claims on work that was never done, and pocket the cash/credit. Most likely, they NEVER did any work on your car, claimed that they did, did a warranty against mazda. And screwed you in the end. I live in a larger city where there are many mazda stealerships so if one stealership gives me ****, I take it to another, but fortunately my 8 has flooded one time, and that was after the flash, the clutch is ok, but the syncros are weak on the tranny and it grinds when I shift 1st and 2nd before the car is completely warmed up, and I warm up the car for 5 minutes, I also noticed the car SHAKES when I roll down the driveway in neutral, odd, but you can feel the shifter shake, I am guessing that the tranny is fucked in my car and it is a matter of time, when the car is out of warranty, maybe then it will convince my wife to get a WRX
